  1. We are in a division battle with the Cardinals. I know that we as Brewer fans are always going to have some Cardinals-related PTSD, but that team is circling the drain. Yeah, they would have to go on a run. But it is not a reach at all. Schedule…. 7 Cubs 7 Pirates 13 Brewers 3 Royals 2 Tigers Also, out last 6 games are in St. Louis and Dodgers…..
  2. The ways our guys get hurt/injured…. It’s endless and always. For 3/4 of a season, Never seen anything like it.
  3. Tonight’s (8/11) pub with the K’s helps.
  4. Dropping like flies…. a couple of relief pitchers and a couple of position players on IL or pulled out of lineup just today……. Pull Burnes.
  5. Well, wrong again…Hader broke this in 2018 with 16 consecutive outs via K. I wonder what the record is for most consecutive outs vs consecutive plate appearances via strikeout?
  6. Mitch Stetter… 2009… 15 consecutive strikeouts over several appearances. https://en-academic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/7341921
  7. Consecutive K’s streak? Doesn’t like Brian Shouse or some lefty from 10 years ago have that over several appearances?
  8. Deals in the fall at various hotel… https://www.mackinacisland.org/
  9. Garcia while having a very nice year has a career OPS under .800, and he's 30. With four other outfielders on the roster for next year and two outfield first round picks on the way. There isn't much reason to re-sign/retain Garcia. Woodruff, Burnes, Hader and Adames are already in or heading to arbitration, the time to give them more money up front in exchange for additional team control is passed. Moreover, I'm sure if they explored an extension with Peralta it follows they likely engaged Burnes, Woodruff and Hader as well with and were rebuffed. If you want the success of the Tampa Bay Rays you have to also recognize the key to that success is the continuous cycling through of players as they get more expensive, not retaining a core of players on pricey contracts. Well, success is relative. They haven’t won it all. They have been relevant over the last 13 years… in the playoffs some, WS twice. Really, really impressive yet. Yet, I’d take the KC Royals over the same period with a title. I find the idea of them trading really good players for younger, controllable pieces just fascinating. Could we become them? Trading a Woodruff in the offseason for three or four high prospects would mirror a Ray move. Ballsy.
  10. Not too early for the optimistic thread, though.
  11. We can’t pitch a couple guys two innings, especially if they are going well?
  12. We are in a division battle with the Cardinals.
  13. Not sure if the drive there is worth it…. Definitely a full day’s drive from Milwaukee. Seems somewhat fun and different, yet.
